She got closer and closer to Mi Cai and I, and I finally saw her in a real way. Her eyebrows and eyes looked a little similar to Mi Cai, but her dressing style was very ostentatious, and even she had a sense of arrogant spirit in her walking posture. But we must admit that she is a beautiful woman, a very beautiful woman. Although she has less background and calmness compared to Mi Cai's beauty, she also has more a sense of arrogance and spirit.

Mi Cai pressed the car window, she put her short hair behind her ears, and smiled and asked Mi Cai, "Sister, why are you blocking the door and not going in?"

Before Mi Cai could answer, her eyes swept to me and asked Mi Cai again: "Is this your boyfriend?"

Mi Cai looked at me and said to her, "Well, let me introduce it to you. His name is Zhaoyang."

"Zhaoyang, this is my sister, Mi Lan."

"Colorful", I immediately associated Mi Cai with her name. I thought that Mi Zhongxin and Mi Zhongde should have had a deep brotherly affection back then, so I gave their daughters this meaningful name.

I smiled and greeted her: "Hello, Milan."

Mi Lan looked at me again before saying, "You can be my sister's boyfriend, it seems that you are quite outstanding!"

I was a little embarrassed and didn't know how to answer for a while.

Mi Cai helped me to clear the situation and said, "Xiao Lan, you go back to your car first, I'll drive in now."

Mi Lan looked at me again, then turned around and walked towards her car. Mi Cai also drove the car into the courtyard. I knew that this family dinner that made me very embarrassed was inevitable.

Mi Cai and I walked out of the car, and then I was blinded by the luxury cars. I even found several government official cars in a group of luxury cars. I guess someone in Mi Cai's family is in politics, so it's normal to think about it. After all, such a large family business is difficult to maintain without an official background.

I bit the bullet and walked into the villa with Micai, and Milan was with us.

...

After entering the house, I was dizzy by the luxurious decorations again. In my life, I have never seen such a luxurious villa.

I calmed down and glanced around the house. I saw Mi Zhongde sitting on the sofa chatting with a group of people of different ages but very imposing spirits.

Mi Cai took my hand and walked to Mi Zhongde and said, "Happy birthday, uncle."

But I was slowing down and said to Mi Cai: "Happy birthday, Uncle Mi."

Mi Zhongde put down the cigar in his hand, looked at the hands that Mi Cai and I were holding together, then looked at me, smiled, and said, "Young man, we seem to have seen it."

I nodded and said, "It's Zhuomei in Suzhou. You were busy attending the meeting at that time."

Mi Cai took over the words and said, "Uncle, he is my boyfriend Zhaoyang. Today I will wish you a happy birthday."

As soon as Mi Cai finished speaking, all the eyes in the room focused on me like a verbal test.

Mi Zhongde's face no longer had a smile, and he picked up the cigar and took another sip and said, "Is that true?...Young man, since you are Xiao Cai's boyfriend, today while many of her elders are there, you can give a detailed introduction to let us know you comprehensively."

The details and comprehensiveness that Mi Zhongde said made me unable to perfunctory, but it was really hard to say. I couldn’t make up a lie in front of so many old people for the sake of the so-called face.

When I decided to give it my best, Mi Cai tightened my hand and said firmly in his words: "Uncle, he is an ordinary man, but we are in love."

I looked at Mi Cai, and this short sentence shocked me, so dense sweat emerged from my palms, wetting Mi Cai's hands, making the gap between the two hands full of wetness.

Mi Zhongde frowned and said to Mi Cai with a majestic tone: "Xiao Cai, no matter whether my elder brother passed away or not, I will treat you as my own daughter. I must give you advice about your relationship and future marriage."

"It's right for you to give me advice, but I also have the right to choose my own feelings... Today is your birthday. I don't want this matter to affect your mood. You are happier and don't discourage the joy of your relatives and friends, okay?" Mi Cai responded to Mi Zhongde calmly with her usual habit.

Mi Zhongde looked at the people around him and finally held back the attack. He looked at me again, and Mi Cai pulled me to the other side, and then sat down in a corner where there was no one.

At this moment, I don’t know what it feels like in my heart, and I feel even more sorry for Mi Cai, because it was my humble birth and long-term inaction that made her suffer the grievances at this time.

The corner of the two of us seemed to have become a world isolated by everyone. Even though Mi Cai looked very calm, she could still see helplessness and sadness in her expression, but I didn't know what to say, as if everything that could be said was pale in such an occasion.

"Zhaoyang, sorry...but we are boyfriend and girlfriend, and we will face it one day sooner or later. I hope you don't mind the decision of me to bring you to the family dinner today."

"I should be sorry for me... If I had some ability, I wouldn't make you so embarrassed!"

There was a faint light of tears in Mi Cai's eyes, but she smiled and said to me: "I don't care whether you have the ability or not, I just care whether your feelings for me are true or not."

The warmth came from the corners of my eyes, so my vision blurred. The scenes I experienced at Jian Wei’s house a few years ago seemed to overlap with this moment. Gradually, even the faces of Mi Cai and Jian Wei overlapped, but this overlap tear apart me, making me feel like I was on a road to repeat the same mistakes.

It was not until Mi Lan came to us that she broke these pictures that overlapped in my mind, and then came back to her senses in panic.

Mi Lan said to me coldly: "Zhaoyang, right... I want to say a few words to my sister, can you avoid it?"

I looked at her, and my emotions were ignited by the contempt in her words, but I tried my best to restrain myself and did not get angry. I just smiled, then got up and walked out of the house under Mi Cai's gaze, but I already knew what she would talk to Mi Cai.

...

The sunshine outside the house is so good. In early spring, there is a warm wind, as if there is vitality and hope, but I am still decadent.

I lit a cigarette, took a heavy breath, and then vented it hard, but even the smoke could not evaporate the mansion and luxury car in front of me, and I felt more and more depressed.

I only sucked half of it, and the nanny who had just opened the door for us came to me, looked at me sorry, and then said to me: "I'm sorry, Mr. Zhaoyang, our Miss Milan asked me to invite you to leave this villa."

I looked at Mi Lan, who was chatting with Mi Cai in the house. The strong sense of humiliation made me laugh. After a while, I gritted my teeth and nodded, saying, "I understand... I'll go."

I turned around without any nostalgia and walked out of the villa. However, the nanny trotted and caught up with me, took out a hundred yuan from her pocket and handed it to me, and said, "Mr. Zhaoyang, this is the taxi money given to you by Miss Milan."
